A Not for Profit can be hard to manage if you don’t have the right people to back you up. That is why we have volunteers to give us a hand. When it comes to a point that it seems like there’s no one else to turn to; remember that you’re not alone in this.

Today, I talk to Kim Miles, owner of Kim’s A-Counting bookkeeping business. We will be discussing three important points you need to consider when you’re in a club or association and you’re running with volunteers: 
Knowing that you’re helping people to get out there and get it done; 
Don’t feel like you’re in the NFP sector alone; and 
The need to run an NFP not as a business but with a business mindset.

NFPs and Family Focus

One of the most challenging parts of running an NFP is accounting. It can be overwhelming to keep track of your cashflow manually. Additionally, it can take much of your time to send out invoices and double-check the numbers.

In today’s episode, we will talk about the Xero Accounting Package and its features. I’ll give you an overview of what Xero looks like, and I’ll teach you how easy it is to use.

Check out the highlights of the episode below and make sure to tune in!

 

Xero Accounting Package (0:04)
Before you log in, there is a two-factor authentication to ensure security.
Once logged out, everything will reset.

Dashboard Screen (1:06)
It gives us a glance at what is happening in your account. You can change what it can display according to your preferences.
The main screen area has two columns. The left side consists of your bank accounts and credit cards, while the right side includes invoices, bills to be paid, and expense claims.

Bank Reconciliations (2:22)
Matching items with your bank statement is simple with Xero.
You can visit Xero’s videos and watch the step-by-step guide on how to manage your bank account in your profile.
Anything green on the information indicates that Xero has found a match with the bank statement line.
By clicking “okay” to match the records, it has added a transaction to the bank line.
At the end of the month or when the company receives a bank statement, they can print out a reconciliation report.

Invoices (8:17)
The right side of the column is the information a company has sent out.
You can create new invoices directly in Xero.

Conversion Balances (10:28)
Conversion Balance allows a company to bring information from another package or from a new system, which the company sets up to open balances and do reports.
You can easily add and remove accounts in this portion.
You can also set your conversion date whenever you want it to be.

Payroll Account (14:11)
It shows information about your payroll: your previous payment and when the next would be.
Team members can apply for their leave directly from their log-in.

Xero and NFPs: A Basic Introduction

After fourteen episodes of inviting guests to talk about their experience in the Not for Profit sector, I decided to do something different. The Not for Profit sector is not for everyone, you need to have passion, compassion, and commitment. It’s hard to be in the NFP sector if you weren’t made for it.

So for today’s episode, I‘m handing the reins over to someone I trust enough to interview me about myself and what I do in the Not For Profit space. Charley Valher, Chief Podcast Officer at Valher Media will be asking me some questions which will help you understand more about me and what I do.

This is going to be an interesting episode so be sure to tune in and stay with us until the end!



Matt’s NFP Story

How Matt Ended Up In The Not For Profit Sector
18 years ago, Matt was in a place where he had no idea where to settle in life, with no real desire to go anywhere or do anything.
Matt started working for his father in law in their auditing business and loved what he was doing.
Most of their clients were from the NFP sector, and that’s what got him in.
Matt continued working in the NFP sector because of his love for the industry and the people.
Matt believes that God has put a mandate in his heart to help people, churches, and the NFP sector.



Dealing with Misinformation in the NFP Sector
A lot of people don’t know where to find information.
Matt says it’s his job to help newcomers in the NFP sector navigate their way around.
The website for NFPs is a minefield and Matt helps people find information quicker and easier, making the process simpler all-in-all.



The Ever-Evolving Not For Profit
NFPs have become more complicated over time since Matt’s involvement.
Confusion arose together with the involvement of a few different departments. People were having trouble with who they were supposed to report to or not.
Finances are a bit of a problem for most NFPs.
Legal terms and jargons add to the confusion and that’s where Matt’s expertise comes in.



NFPs in 2020
The biggest change in 2020 for NFPs is the fundraising side of things.
It’s going to be both a good and bad year for all NFPs.
Bad—because most NFPs will be required to do regulated reporting particularly to the ACNC.
Good—because it’s a good time to build and take up a relationship with an accountant or auditor, making this an opportunity to grow.
Matt believes that working with people who are professionals when it comes to their calling, it’s going to make your job easier.



Why Matt Chose Podcasting About NFP
Matt says he wants to cover all things NFP but at the same time, he also wants to ensure the growth of startups and smaller NFPs.
Matt wants to get all the information about NFP across.
For one-man bands that wish to grow from $100,000 to a million dollars, Matt wants to address their need for information on such an important topic.
Matt chose podcasting as an avenue to get information out to as many people as he quickly can.



Future Topics for The Not For Profit Podcast
The difference between Xero and MYOB
Matt wants to talk about the numbers, believing that this information will allow NFPs to make informed decisions.
How to set up fringe benefits for pastors in the different packages using Xero, MYOB, Quickbooks, etc.
Matt wants to talk about the accounting stuff because that’s his passion and strength,
How to do stuff with ACNC
Where do you go to get help in starting/raising funds for your NFP?
Are there different rules for NFPs in different states?
Matt wants NFPs to think big—setting up how big they want to be and how they can achieve those goals.



Common Things that Catch People Out in the Financial Side of the NFP Space
Three biggest things that Matt finds common with his clients in the previous 18 years:
#1: They don’t put enough effort into accounting.
#2: Reporting and compliance—there are fines in place if you don’t do these.
#3: Relationships—building relationships is important in the NFP sector.
Tips that will help in solving the abovementioned problems:
Tip #1: Enroll in programs that will help with your accounting.
Tip #2: Comply with the standards set by ACNC to avoid fines.
Tip #3: Get on NFP groups, community groups, and/or Facebook pages that talk about NFP so you don’t feel alone.
Compliance helps business owners in a sense where the government is able to remove dodgy operators.
The second component is business owners are compelled to level up and take things more seriously.



Common Traits of Successful NFPs
Every NFP is different, but one thing common is their well-systematized business.
Most people don’t realize that they have to run their NFP as a business.
You need to have a good system in place, you cannot make a good decision based on bad information.
Successful NFPs focus on their core beliefs and they don’t waver from them.
“You do good things, good things happen.”—It’s a universal law that is common and that works, not just for NFPs but even in business.
